Rose was sure this was a dream. Reality could never be this good.
His fingertips slid along her back, applying hardly any pressure, yet sending shockwaves over her flesh. Slowly, slowly, his hands moved across her skin, down the sides of her stomach to finally rest on the curve of her hips. She felt him press his lips just below her ear, the delicate skin of her neck prickled with the slight stubble covering his delicious jaw. He kept kissing her over and over, moving to trail open mouthed kisses down her throat, sucking on the top of her breast.
His lips moved above, caressing her cheeks before finally finding her mouth. They kissed, wrapping themselves together and as close as possible. Her blood burned within her and she felt more alive in that moment than she ever had. She loved him. Oh god she loved him so much!
"Dimitri," she breathed out, clutching on his shoulders. This felt do good! So good that it further convinced Rose that she was indeed dreaming.
"Roza," Dimitri growled latching on her ear lobe, biting it lightly with his fangs as she rocked against him. "I love it when you call out my name like that." And he really did, considering Rose stuck to his ugly nickname otherwise, listening her purr out his real name in ecstasy was a delight!
"Oh Dimitri!" Rose nibbled his lower lip, making him shudder as he slowly, oh so slowly inched inside her. Fuck! Heaven was right there! Rose mewled quietly, not willing to open her eyes and this dream to fade. It felt so real!
"Feels so good!" She rasped out clutching him tighter as he started moving inside her in slow but deep strokes, his pace increasing ever so slightly. Dimitri hummed at her admission smug at the thought that he could please her like this. He increased the pace a little more, thrusting inside her a little harder.
"Oh…Oh…I'm…Oh…Dimitri!" Rose called out falling apart; her small frame shuddered as waves of ecstasy hit her with full force. She had never experienced a pleasure so great! It felt like she was floating. Heck! She didn't even know which cloud was she on right now!
Rose's orgasm wracking through her body triggered his. He felt a shiver run down his spine as he let go, Rose's core milking him for every inch of his life.
"Oh fuck!" he sighed finally guiding him outside her before pulling her by the waist, hauling her body close to his.
"That was the best orgasm I ever had!" Rose declared.
"You're welcome." Dimitri grinned at her smugly. Rose hit his chest lightly making him chuckle. "You're a conceited ass!"
"An ass?" Dimitri laughed harder pulling her close and placing a kiss on the crown of her head. Rose sighed, relaxing against his hold. "What a wonderful dream it is!"
Dimitri quirked an eyebrow at her, "What makes you think this is a dream?"
Rose rolled her eyes. "Come on! We're in a beach, the one Mr. and Mrs. Dragomir took us when we were twelve. We've had the most mid blowing, out of the world sex in the chaise lounge and plus, the sun's shining bright right now and you're barely feeling anything!"
"That's a lot more things than I expected." Dimitri laughed lightly.
"I know right." Rose said, running a hand through his silken locks, "I've had more of these."
"Dreams?"
"Yes. In my dreams, we've made love everywhere and then I wake up and find you gone from my real bed in my room." She pouted lightly. She had no idea why she was telling all these things to dream Dimitri, but she shrugged the feeling, trying to enjoy the sun's warmth till it lasted.
"You're beautiful, you know that?" Dimitri asked caressing her hips.
"Yes. The real Dimitri reminds me of this every second." Rose said. Dmitri beside her broke into a humorous laugh.
"You don't think I'm real?" He seemed amused by her observation.
"Nope. You're Dreamitri, Dream – Dimitri. That's what I call you." Rose replied honestly.
"And what's the difference between the two of me?" He seemed more amused than ever.
"Well, if you look at it that way – Nothing. Except -The real one's more beautiful probably." Rose quipped making Dream – Dimitri bark out a full belly laugh, almost falling from the chaise lounge in an attempt to catch his breath.
"My god Rose!" he heaved. "I love you so much!"
"I love you too, Dreamitri."
"Would you want this dream to be real?" he asked her softly.
"I feel this is real." Rose sighed again. "It's so beautiful out here. No restrictions, no disturbances. Just you and me. It's peaceful." She said entwining their fingers together. It was such an innocent move but it felt so intimate.
"Tell me. What do you dream of?" Dimitri asked bringing her hands to place a kiss on her knuckles.
Rose hesitated for a moment, but then thought – to hell with it! This isn't the real Dimitri she's talking to. "I'll tell you, but you promise not to laugh."
"I promise!" He swore.
"Okay. So I started to have these dreams a little while ago. It was again you and me in the most beautiful house I've ever imagined. It seemed like we were married." She hesitated again. "After that, I've always thought what it would be like to get married to you, you know. Live together as a couple."
Dimitri keeps rubbing her knuckles, silently urging her to go on. "It's a wishful thinking, I know. But I'm afraid."
"Afraid of what, love?"
"Us. The possibilities 'us' could bring. I never thought I'd be something other than Lissa's guardian but that was until I met you. I think I fell in love the moment I saw you walking down the cafeteria three years ago. I know you love me, but I'm afraid it'll fade away. You have your future right in front of you. It's well planned and thought of. And it's bright. I don't even know where my assignment would take me. Whether I'll be there with you in the next five months or not. I don't want you to jeopardize any of your future for me."
Dimitri sighed. "I understand your fears milaya. But I've told you and let me tell you again – I love you. And not just that I'm in head – over – heels – please – don't – wake – me – from – this – fucking – dream kind of in love with you. We may be young, but you're the one for me. I know that. You told me what you dream of and what you're scared of. Want to know about my dream?"
Rose bit her lip and nodded meekly, a little overwhelmed by his words. "I dream of us. A perfect future, with me and you as man and wife - grey haired with no teeth, living in a white – picket – fenced house seeing our grand or probably great grand children playing in the lawn." Rose let out a small giggle, envisioning his version of future – and liking it better by the second.
"I love you Roza. I'll prove it that I'm the one for you. We're made for each other. What we have – it is the thing they write stories about. We'll get over it. Together."
Rose could see the love shining in his eyes and oozing out from his every pore. She wished her eyes reciprocated everything.
"Together." She whispered.
And with that the real seeming dream faded and Rose tripped into a dreamless oblivion.
"Comrade, you'll need to behave!"
Dimitri grumbled something in Russian. "What was that?" Rose asked folding her arms in front of her chest pushing up her bra – clad breast.
"Fuck Roza. At least put on a top if you want me to think straight!"
Rose narrowed her eyes at him and went to put on one of his T – shirts. It felt huge, so it must do the work of covering her up enough to get a reasonable conversation out of Dimitri.
"I'm saying it again – You'll behave in front of Andre. No rude comments. No sarcasm. And No going caveman all over me!"
"But you love it when I go caveman over you. You told me so once, remember?" Dimitri smirked pulling her close and drawing small infinity symbols in the back of her thigh.
But Rose wasn't having any of it. "Dimitri Alexander Belikov!" She pushed him back on the bed before crawling up to straddle him. "I know you're trying to distract me. But I'm serious. Don't blow this out with Andre! He's here to see Lissa…"
"And to woo you."
"That's not…" Rose started defensively only to be cut off by Dimitri.
"You and I both know it's true so let's stop pretending." Rose shut her mouth quickly devoid of any comeback. "I promise I won't start anything, but I'll make sure he knows you're mine now. And there's no chance for him."
Rose sighed. That was the best she could get from him and she knew it so didn't argue. Attempting to lighten the mood, she pulled him back up, so that she was sitting on his lap.
"Did I tell you to wear something black for the dance tonight?"
But Rose didn't know that unknowingly, she had trudged the wrong waters. Thinking of the dance, only brought back the thoughts of what Dimitri had to tell her today. She felt his shoulders tense and her brows furrowed in confusion.
"What? Don't you have a black dress shirt?"
Dimitri smiled. "I do and yes. I remember you telling me that a dozen times in the last week!" He pinched the top of her nose. "Are you going to tell me what you're wearing?"
"Nope!"
"Is it the same dress we saw at the mall?"
"No, comrade. The dress was pretty but too risqué and though I'd dress for you in private like that, but for a school dance – it was a no no."
"Good. I like having good stuff to myself." He nuzzled her neck.
"You're a smooth talker." Rose giggled.
"And you love it."
"Every second of it!"
"Hurry up! You're going to get us late!" Lissa scowled at Rose and Christian who were busy eating their snacks leisurely.
"Hold on Liss! Andre is not going to run anywhere. I've barely started!" Christian said holding a pack of yoghurt out for her. Lissa snatched the pack, setting it down the table with an audible thud, before snatching the éclair Rose was about to pop in her mouth.
"Hey! Give it back!" Rose protested.
"No. Get up right now. Andre's due in ten minutes. We should be waiting at the terminal from him!" Lissa said firmly, giving both of them strict eyes.
"But…"
"No buts Rose! Do you want me to call Dimitri?"
"I'm already here, your highness!" Dimitri's sarcastic voice carried through the table where they were currently seated, as the man himself approached the party. "Am I late?"
"No. You're just on time! Now gather your girlfriend. My brother's jet is just about to land!"
Dimitri rolled his eyes. He was so not excited to see Andre Dragomir! Considering everything Christian had said about Rose and him, Andre was the last person Dimitri wanted to see right then. Before his mouth could come up with a snarky reply, Rose cut him.
"Jesus Liss!" she sighed. "Alright! Lets head out."
Dimitri made a sour face, dragging Christian behind him as Lissa laced her hand through Rose's and move in quick strides.
"What do you think is going to happen?" Christian said once the girls were out of earshot.
"I don't know. But the idiot better not touch Rose. Or else I'm going to break his nose!"
"Damn Mitya! You need to stay calm, for the sake of decorum! You too are going to meet a lot in the council meetings in future. Don't start something unnecessarily!" Dimitri just grunted in response.
After a ten minute walk, Dimitri and Christian turned across the terminal to find that the plane had already landed.
"Let's go," Christian said his own displeasure at the arrival of his potential brother - in - law clearly evident on his face.
"Andre!" He heard Lissa squeal before she jumped in his arms, catching him a giant bear hug. "I can't believe you're here to see me!"
"Hey Little sister!" Andre replied chuckling at his sister's enthusiastic greeting. "How have you been?"
"I'm good!" Lissa smiled, kissing his cheeks, before looping her arm through his and dragging him to where the rest of the party stood. Dimitri eyed the man. He had seen him before in numerous parties and in court and Andre still looked the same. At the height of six – three, he was few inches shorter than him, and way more lanky and pale. His platinum blond hair was neatly styled and his bright jade green –trademark Dragomir - eyes raked over each of their form before coming to rest on Rose.
"Rose!" His smile turned wider as he scooped her in his arms before twirling her around in the air. Rose squealed out a laugh asking him to put her down. He complied with her request. Her feet were barely on the ground and before she registered what happened, Andre slung an arm around her waist, hauling her against his chest and before she knew, he had his lips on her kissing her with every inch of his life.
